    TENNESSEE BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION THE GEOGRAPHY OF TRAFFICKING IN TENNESSEE 2013 Follow-up Report to the Tennessee Human Sex Trafficking and Its Impact on Children and Youth 2011 Please contact the TBI if there are any questions regarding dissemination. 1-800-TBI-FIND Tennessee Bureau of Investigation The Geography of Trafficking in Tennessee 2013 Follow-up Report to the Tennessee Human Sex Trafficking and Its Impact on Children and Youth 2011 Page intentionally left blank Letter from the Director The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation is pleased to present a follow-up study to the Tennessee Human Sex Trafficking Study: The Impact on Children and Youth 2011. This follow up report profiles minor sex trafficking cases of Tennessee counties and provides statistical comparisons between cases reported from law enforcement and non-law enforcement responders. Additionally, this study analyzes data in counties that reported the highest numbers of minor sex trafficking. As of July 2013, twelve new anti-human trafficking laws have been created to address this epidemic. Domestic issues, the drug trade, poverty and other socio-economic factors serve as catalysts for human sex trafficking. It is important to analyze the Tennessee counties that were identified as having the highest rates of minor human sex trafficking to provide better awareness and focus resources in those areas of Tennessee. Numerous factors within each county have also been examined and compared in an effort to identify circumstances or conditions that may place an individual at risk for becoming a victim. As a result of the first-ever 2011 study and this follow up study, we can now make the distinction that sex trafficking is not solely an urban problem.

Gass Boulevard Nashville, Tennessee 37216-2639 (615) 744-4000 PHIL BREDESEN TDD (615) 744-4001 LARRY WALLACE Governor Director June 25, 2003 Ladies and Gentlemen: I am very pleased to present the 2002 Crime in Tennessee report. This is the second annual report of crime statistics published by the TBI. The information contained in the report is based on crime statistics information submitted by law enforcement agencies in Tennessee to TBI’s Tennessee Incident Based Reporting System (TIBRS) program. TIBRS is the state version of the FBI’s National Incident Based Reporting System (NIBRS) program. The TBI is mandated by T.C.A. §38-10-101 et seq, to create a program to collect crime statistics from all law enforcement agencies in the state. The TIBRS program collects comprehensive data on crime incidents including: information on the offense, victim, offender, arrestee, and victim – offender relationships. Because of the type of data collected, the TIBRS program provides a more accurate depiction of the crime events in each community than the Uniform Crime Report (UCR) published by the FBI. Tennessee is one of the most populous states in the nation where all crime statistics are reported by NIBRS compliant agencies and the efforts by Tennessee’s law enforcement agencies have become a model for the nation. All but one of Tennessee’s 455 law enforcement agencies’ data is included in this report.
